A more visually rich Creativity (creativity-online.com) brings to life the best brand ideas from around the world, as chosen by Creativity's editors. It also now includes the ability for agencies, marketers and production companies to upload their work into a Creativity database, which can be browsed by marketer, agency and creative credits. Additionally, there are options to promote work across AdAge.com and Creativity-online.com through a new paid model.
"Agencies have often asked us to build out Creativity to include even more examples of great work, and marketers are increasingly challenged to be experts on trends in global creativity. By inviting the industry to help us build the database, and exposing it on Ad Age as well as Creativity, we're able to accomplish both objectives and bring the industry together to see world-class creativity everyday," says Arden.
